When a Simple Act of Kindness Got Complicated

On a San Diego Construction Site, Four Caterpillars United a Team
In 2020, Ingrid Hoch and Brian Lahr were hired as managers on a big construction project to create a new terminal at the San Diego International Airport.
But before the job had officially begun, COVID hit. Ingrid and Brian joined a volunteer-based group called the Resiliency Team, intended to foster community amidst the pandemic.
At StoryCorps they remembered how they brought people together with the help of some tiny insects.
“We're Stuck With Each Other”: 50 Years of Friendship And Troublemaking
In the 1970s Gary “Zooks” Bezucha was in school to become a physical therapist in Madison, Wisconsin. He kept running into another student time and again, Greg Klatkiewicz.
Gary and Greg instantly became a dynamic duo, that is until Greg introduced his friend to a hilarious woman he knew from work, Janet. Gary and Janet started dating soon after, and the dynamic duo became the “three amigos.”
Now, after nearly 50 years, Greg and Gary came to StoryCorps to recount some of the memories that truly stand out.
